Well, lyrically this wasn't to bad..I sensed alot of emotion in some parts..Yet alot of self-opression in the others..Which i will go into further down my reply..

Keys seemed to come a bit..Ignorant is the honest word..In some parts..Due to the fact that..From one black kid to the other..I guess it's pending on where you live..But you're putting past situations into the future..It looks like something far back..I used to be the same way tho..Always bitching about what people did to me ..How white people have held us down..Then i stopped beintg dumb and realised this isn't the 60's anymore..I agree, cops will have a larger eye out for cops..All that shit..But i live in Georgia..I promise you that it's worse for a black kid in georgia than it is for a black kid in new york..And i get treated fairly well..Not really any difference..

So as far as the concept..It makes me feel sorry for you if you actually think that's how we are treated today..

"How could you put me through so much pain white man?"

That's the line that made me turn my stomach a little bit..I get more opression from fellow african americans than i do from white people..Just for the fact that most talk of racism is for what happened to OTHER BLACK PEOPLE..in the past..Which doesn't effect me or us physically..But emotionally..And honestly when i see a black kid bitching over this it makes him look weak..I remember how i was..Then my dad sat down and talked to me..

Basically told me that the people who actually went thru what you CLAIM to be going thru right now wouldn't have moaned and cried about the awful things as much as i am doing..When i'm only mad because of what they DID..not what they're doing..


It's a given that racism exist..But it's more even now..There are many white people that would like to see me die..Hate me..All that good shit..But it's equally distributed because there is black people who feel the same way..I myself hated white people until i was about 16..So it's really not "what the white man does"..It's what some people do..You must look from all veiw points.. There's nothing that any white man can or will ever be able to control me or anyone else..And for that you must realise that most the things in your verses are really ..Irrelevant for the times we live in now..


I know that you probably don't care ..But that's my opinion..

P.S. G. Buttersworth..In one thread you called me a stupid lil newbie for asking a question....Just wanted to let you know that your name calling proved to be ignorant..For the fact that without asking questions i will not gain the proper knowledge needed..But to avoid or resist the asking of questions would be to remain stupid..I'd appreciate it if you could hold your pre-school remarks next time i have the urge to set a thread in that forum..


All in all i have to say tho i didn't really enjoy this piece i'll remember it for a while..

Keep writing..
